Summary

Life is good for university friends Sarah, Ruth, Charlotte and Kathy - it's summer, exams are over and they're escaping to a cabin by the Blue Pool. But then Sarah disappears without a trace.

Twenty-five years later, a man walks into a police station claiming to know something about the missing girl. Suddenly the three women - now estranged - all become suspects. For not everything was as it seemed, and the greater the secret, the deeper it lies....

Loved it although it seemed to take a while for me to get into the story- a little slow at the start - love narrator Aoife McMahon - she’s my favourite narrators.

The Blue Pool is an intriguing thriller that leaves you wondering right to the end. I loved the twist that changes everything. The narrator is very easy to listen to and makes the story real.

Great story. Terrific narrator.

First of Siobhan's books I have read. The way the author moves between then and now made me wish I had a perfect memory and could remember earlier conversations. A delight to listen to and had me enthralled.

Top notch plot

It took a while to get to the point of the story, but once it did it was worth it. Some twists right at the end meant it almost felt like the book ended too early and with unanswered questions. Aoife McMahon does brilliant narration as always.

I think I need a sequel
